Life gets better? Try telling that to Ashton Irwin, who's life has only been shit. He doesn't believe in anything or himself anymore, and he's nearing his breaking point. Luke Hemmings is the new kid, and he immediately becomes well known; due to his charming looks and personality. But when he sees the hazel eyed boy sitting alone at lunch, he finds himself making it his goal to make Ashton happy again. Will he fix him before it's too late? Or will Ashton slip right through his fingertips? WARNING: foul language, self harm, suicidal actions/thoughts, and eating disorders.

"I use cutting as an alternative to committing suicide. The blood reminds me I'm alive, and it's oddly comforting. It's my only escape from this hell." WARNING: triggers like self harm are a common occurrence in this particular fan fic, also there's swearing, if that bothers you haha

"...you were just a teacher and you meant nothing to me..." The only time Luke took medicine was to try to kill himself. The only time Ashton takes medicine is when he's sick and to make himself happy every morning. (Warning: Mentions of past self harm, drug use, physical abuse, sexual abuse, and heavy swearing.)

5 Seconds of Summer & One Direction -crossover- Multiple Ships. warnings: triggering. anorexia, self-harm, depression, bullying, swearing. Disclaimer: I do not own anyone in this story. ~ "Want an oreo?" Who knew one sentence could change someone's life so much?

There was something about Luke, that made Ashton smile. But lately, Luke hasn't been smiling back. Luke is deeply in love with Ashton, and it's slowly killing him. He's convinced that Ashton will never love him back. He starts to drift away from the other boys, shutting himself out from them while occasionally letting Calum in. Luke is tired of being alone and tired of feeling broken.

"Love will always be a stronger bond then blood, Ashton."
